What is the electric potential energy of an electron at the negative end of the cable, relative to the positive end of the cable

? In other words, assume that the electric potential of the positive terminal is 0 VV and that of the negative terminal is −12V−12V. Recall that e=1.60×10−19Ce=1.60×10−19C

Answer:

Electric potential energy at the negative terminal: 1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

Explanation:

When a particle with charge q travels across a potential difference \Delta V, then its change in electric potential energy is

\Delta U = q \Delta V

In this problem, we know that:

The particle is an electron, so its charge is

q=-1.60\cdot 10^{-19}C

We also know that the positive terminal is at potential

V_+=0V

While the negative terminal is at potential

V_-=-12 V

Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is

\Delta V = -12-0 = -12 V

So, the change in potential energy of the electron is

\Delta U = (-1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(-12)=1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has 1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.

Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is

1.92\cdot 10^{-18}J

Suppose the farthest distance a person can see without visual aid is 53 cm.
natita [175]

Answer: a. 53cm b. Diverging c. 0.02dioptres

Explanation:

Since the person in question cannot see far object clearly, it shows that the individual is suffering from myopia (short sightedness).

If the object distance (u) is 53cm. for the person to be able to see far way, it means the image must be at infinity. This shows image distance v is infinity. Using the lens formula

1/f = 1/u+1/v

1/f = 1/53 + 1/Infinity

1/f = 1/53 + 0

f=53cm

b) The lens used is concave lens (diverging lens) to diverge all rays outwards

c) Power of a lens P will be 1/53.

P = 0.02dioptres

Dovator [93]

Answer:

m = 45 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Jadan, m = 45 kg on Earth

Jupiter has more gravity than the Earth.

Mass of an object is the amount of matter contained inside an object. We need to tell about the mass of Jaden on Jupiter. The mass of the object remains same everywhere.It does not change in any of the location.

Hence, Jaden's mass will be 45 kg on Jupiter.
